Trump didn’t break this system; he’s its product. His rise was the inevitable consequence of decades of decline — the final expression of a system where ignorance and arrogance outweigh truth and competence. The US for decades, cast itself as the indispensable nation. Now it’s a destabiliser, exporting chaos and importing despair. Allies hedge their bets elsewhere. Rivals grow stronger. Trust in Washington has evaporated. As Trump doubles down on vengeance, nationalism, and war profiteering, America accelerates toward irrelevance.

The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul - all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair. Not a president. Not even a man. Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn't but always has been - arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, and corruption worshipped like gospel. It is America's shadow made flesh, a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before money, power, and spite, it doesn't just lose its soul - it shits out this bloated obscenity and calls it a leader.

Because of my particular palaeontological expertise, in 1999, I was asked to be involved in a project with the Northern Territory Geological Survey (NTGS). They were about to begin remapping…
